Wow—what a ride! Thanks to you, the 2025 Ballarat Cycle Classic was our biggest and best yet, and together, we’ve raised an incredible $321,000 for the Fiona Elsey Cancer Research Institute!
Whether you rode, walked, fundraised, or cheered from the sidelines, you’ve made a real difference in the fight against cancer. Every pedal stroke, every step, and every effort you made has helped fund vital research—and the best part? 100% of your registration fee went directly to FECRI. That’s something truly special.
A Huge Thanks to Our Supporters
While you powered this event, we also want to acknowledge the many hands that made it possible:
Our Major Sponsors: Huge thanks to Eclipse Ford, BJT Legal, Protect, Petstock, Cyclescape, Lake Imaging and Network 7 for their generous support.
Our In-Kind Supporters: A huge thank you to Fulton Hogan! Their support went well beyond logistics – it was like a masterclass in event magic. They provided thousands of dollars’ worth of first-rate infrastructure, and a large, dedicated team members that worked tirelessly from the crack of dawn for four whole days to ensure every detail was spot-on and safe. It was efficiency and passion in perfect harmony.
Our Incredible Volunteers: From rest stop crews to marshals, SAG drivers, and event-day helpers, this army of volunteers kept everything running smoothly. Without them, the event simply wouldn’t happen.
See You in 2026!
The routes are locked in and we are excited to introduce Ride Ballarat, the exciting new evolution of the Ballarat Cycle Classic!
We’ve got a fresh name, a brand-new look, and some fantastic upgrades, but our core remains exactly the same: a proud, community-driven weekend spending time together and riding together to fund life-saving cancer research at the Fiona Elsey Cancer Research Institute (FECRI).
